Product description
The Menuett pendant light, designed by Lars Schiøler for Hoyrup Light in the 1970s, is a definitive example of Danish mid-century lighting design. This piece is characterised by its spherical, folded plastic construction, which creates a striking geometric silhouette and diffuses light with a warm, ambient glow. Constructed from folded plastic sheets in a vibrant orange hue, the shade is meticulously assembled using clear plastic clips that form an integral part of the design's visual rhythm. The material choice and assembly technique are emblematic of the era's innovative approach to accessible, flat-pack lighting solutions. The pendant is designed to cast a soft, diffused light, making it highly functional while serving as a sculptural focal point. It was sold as a DIY kit that could be assembled at home. This pendant light is well-suited to mid-century modern, retro, or eclectic interiors. It serves as an excellent primary light source above a dining table or as a statement piece in a living area, adding a distinct pop of colour and historical design context to the space. There is a crack in one of the plastic panels, but this does not affect the structural integrity.
